This volume explores the links between the rapidly growing phenomenon of social entrepreneurship (SE) and the international tourism and hospitality industry. This unique industry is particularly ripe for transformation by SE and the book's authors delve deeply into the reasons for this. The book has three parts. The first creates a conceptual and theoretical framework for understanding the uniqueness of SE in the tourism context. The second examines different communities of practice where SE is being applied in tourism. The third is a rich collection of case studies from eight countries where tourism SE is already having an impact. The book's authors address the topic from many different angles, disciplinary backgrounds and geographic areas. Many case study authors are practicing social entrepreneurs who share their successes, challenges and experience with tourism-related projects. The book also proposes a research agenda and educational programmatic changes needed to support tourism SE. As these are developed, tourism SE will bring innovation to destinations, transformation of their economic and social structures, and contribution to a better world. The book has many insights and resources for scholars and practitioners alike to usher in this transformation.
A murder in the suburbs causes disorder when tolerance, understanding, and traditional values are questioned. Lebanese-American Ava Makari was an above-average college sophomore with big dreams. Last year, her life was cut short one morning. When the former high school football star initially accused of her murder is released from custody for lack of evidence, Detective Richard Pringle, a former Brooklyn policeman, reopens the case. However, with the village mayor, Celine Weston, looking good for reelection, and the police chief making sure to keep things status quo in the community amid strife and suspicions, Detective Pringle is determined to put the pieces of the puzzle together without interference. Unfortunately for Richard and his family in their new surroundings, his investigation to prove Ava's murderer looks like an uphill battle. Are racism, prejudice, and discrimination at the forefront of this bucolic Long Island village? Find out in the psychological thriller NORTH HOLLOW HILLS.
Es un relato que nos habla de la pasion politica con que un grupo de jovenes realizadores se entrego a la causa revolucionaria cuando las luchas por la liberacion parecian encaminarse por el rumbo de la victoria. Inserto en ese complejo contexto, muchos realizadores abrazaron las luchas revolucionarias que se libraban en todo el mundo y participaron en ellas con diversos grados de compromiso, incluso en algunos casos en vinculo con acciones armadas. Al conflictivo panorama internacional, se sumo en la Argentina el problema del peronismo que polarizo a la sociedad desde 1945 hasta la decada del setenta y desencadeno un clima enfrentamiento y odio social irreconciliables que repercutieron en la posicion politica de estos realizadores.
